Kashima Antlers's last game in the Japan J1 League against Kawasaki Frontale at home ended in a 0-2 loss. Kashima Antlers had plenty of possession, but not enough quality in the final third of the pitch.

Kashiwa Reysol's recent game against Yokohama F. Marinos ended in a home 3-1 win. Although Reysol didn't match their opponent's intensity and quality while on possession, it was still enough. Kashiwa Reysol had good chances in both halves and scored in the 24th, 60th and 90+2 minute.

So far, Kashima Antlers plays better on the road than at home. They win 3.00 points per away game on average compared to 0.00 points at home. Although Kashima Antlers is among the most solid home teams in the league, they are far from perfect. Their defence is not as good as expected with just 0% home clean sheets.

Kashiwa Reysol has picked up 6 points from the previous two league games. Kashiwa Reysol don't feel the pressure of playing away. So far, they earn an average of 3.00 points per game, both home and away.

It is not a surprise that the hosts stand out as a favourite to win this one.

I am confident that the hosts will prove their worth and triumph with another home victory.My prediction is Kashima Antlers to win.



译文(自动翻译仅供参考):

鹿岛鹿角队在日本J1联赛的最后一场主场比赛中以0-2负于川崎前锋。鹿角队有很多控球权，但在最后三分之一的比赛中表现不佳。

Kashiwa Reysol最近与横滨F.马里诺斯的比赛以主场3-1获胜告终。虽然雷索尔在控球时没有达到对手的强度和质量，但这已经足够了。Kashiwa Reysol在两场比赛中都有很好的机会，并在第24分钟、第60分钟和90+2分钟进球。

到目前为止，鹿角在公路上的表现比在国内要好。他们在客场的平均得分是3.00分，而在主场则是0.00分。虽然鹿角队是联盟中最坚固的主场球队之一，但他们离完美还很远。他们的防守没有预期的好，主场零失球。

Kashiwa Reysol在前两场联赛中得到了6分。Kashiwa Reysol没有感受到客场比赛的压力。到目前为止，他们每场比赛的平均得分为3.00分，包括主场和客场。

东道主成为夺冠热门并不令人意外。

我有信心，东道主将证明他们的价值和胜利的另一个主场胜利。我预测鹿角队会赢。
